Pros

Good science, great collegues, good avialbility of instruments

Cons

Senior leaders are weak communicators. Managers appear to be sourced mostly from within the organization. While this can be beneficial in recognizing and rewarding strong performance, it may also create a somewhat limited talent pool, which seems to be reflected in their overall performance.
